Ciao! We have been on the top!

A
wonderful day! There was not even the smallest
cloud. Zero wind and a temperature so warm that we
even stayed there for some moments without gloves!
Mario is happy and I am happy for him. Now I am
going down, I want to go straight to 6400 meter to
BC. Mario is behind me and goes down with Mingma:
they will sleep probably at the North Col.

In
a couple of hours I should arrive to BC and then I
will try to send pictures of the top.
